2026-07-11 / reddit-researcher8090 Solutions Raises $135M Series A Led by Salesforce Ventures for Enterprise AIPer the July 9 venture roundup, 8090 Solutions raised a $135M Series A led by Salesforce Ventures with Craft Ventures, TPG, WNDR, and LAUNCH participating. The size of a Series A round reflects the continued concentration of AI capital in enterprise-deployment plays rather than consumer apps, part of a week that also included SambaNova's $1B and Ollama's $65M.

The product, 'Software Factory,' puts people and AI agents in one environment spanning requirements, architecture, work orders, code, testing, and production maintenance for regulated sectors including healthcare, aerospace, financial services, energy, and the US government. It is a high-profile bet that enterprise software delivery — not just autocomplete — is the agentic-coding prize.
